Flank Steak with Raspberry-Chipotle Sauce
Ingredients
- Large zip-top bag
- ⅓ cup molasses
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
- 2 lb beef flank steak
- Aluminum foil
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- ¼ cup raspberry preserves
- 3 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
- 1 tablespoon chipotle pepper sauce
- 6 hamburger buns
Steps
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Place in zip-top bag: molasses, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, and liquid smoke; shake to mix. Add flank steak (wash hands); seal bag tightly and knead to evenly coat the steak. Transfer steak and marinade to 2-quart baking dish; bake 25–30 minutes and until steak is 125°F (for medium rare; warm red center), 130°F (for medium; warm pink center), or up to 170°F (for well done). Transfer steak to cutting board and cover loosely with foil; let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Temperature will rise 5–10°F during this time.
- Combine remaining ingredients (except buns). Slice meat thinly (across the grain). Place meat on buns, top with sauce and serve. (Sauce may be warmed, if desired. Place in microwave-safe bowl; microwave on HIGH 30–45 seconds or until warm.)
